Today was my first day of C'est si bon cooking camp. We didn't make our own meals, but Jeremy and Alice made it for us and dinner was delicious! For dinner we had Spicy shrimp and remoulade, smoked north carolina turkey legs in an apricot glaze, sweet potatoes with walnut and chili oil, grilled zucchini, roasted corn, july salad/honey mustard vinaigrette, and 7-up pound cake with berries and lavender glaze. It was a delicious meal and I'm looking forward to cooking more like it myself. I'm very excited for tomorrow and what's to come. I've made a few goals for myself this week for my cooking and for myself. They seem very fitting for both. I want to be more flexible and optimistic in attitude, and also when cooking. toodles!
Did you take these pictures!? The meal sounds great, I'm wondering how you liked the potatoes with walnut and chili oil - spicy, or maybe not. I love your goals, too! I'm trying to show Rosie the pictures, but she seems very disinterested. I'm looking forward to more posts....even if Rosie is not.
ReplyDeleteI did take the pictures! We learned from a food photographer named Elaine how to take good pictures of our food. I'm really excited about that because now I'll be able to take pictures of the food that I make for my blog and it'll actually look semi-pro. The potatoes were delicious, I went for seconds! They weren't spicy at all, I didn't really taste the chili oil so not very spicy, but delicious. My favorite part of that meal was the turkey, delicious mmm. Did you know we're going to Vimela's today? I'm so excited!
DeleteI'm sure Dad will be especially happy you went to Vimala's! I'm pretty excited about all of the food...Carol, Mark and Zia, I'm sure, are all pretty much ready to eat! (And me too, of course!) Looking forward to more posts... :)
